Well obviously higher taxes does nothing to eliminate the ability to manipulate the system - but it most certainly would lessen the impact of those manipulations.

Bush has said his tax cuts were for everyone and they were. It was not only a cut for the wealthy as Kerry has spouted. I got my $300 checks and I'm not wealthy. My fiancee got $600 and she is not wealthy.
As I asked - are you really trying to convince me that his tax cuts were not heavily targetted to the rich?

If I were President and I gave a 50% tax cut to the rich and a .05% tax cut to everyone else, I could say I cut taxes for everyone - but only a fool wouldn't roll their eyes.
